Mar Menor is a salty lagoon separated to the Mediterranean sea by a 22 kilometers (13,67 miles) long and 100 to 1200 meters width sand stripe, in Southeastern Spain, within the Region of Murcia. It has a surface area of nearly 170km², a coastal length of 70 kilometers (43,5 miles) and warm and clear water which does not exceed 7 meters in depth. It belongs to four municipalities: Cartagena, San Javier, Los Alcázares and San Pedro del Pinatar. Its relatively high salinity, which aids floatation, and remarkable sporting infrastructures make this one of the most popular places in Europe for the practice and training of all kinds of water sports.
